MI SB1083

Changes language in township consolidation election procedures from "shall" to "must" for consistency with modern legislative drafting standards.

Moves the election date for consolidated township board elections from the August primary to the June primary election.

Requires consolidation elections to be held on or before May 1 in the year of a general November election.

Specifies that ballot language reference "the charter township act, 1947 PA 359, MCL 42.1 to 42.34" instead of the longer statutory citation.

Contains a tie-bar provision making this bill contingent on the enactment of Senate Bill No. 1082 of the 100th Legislature.
